On Saturday morning, September 7th, Pastor Job showed us many local historic sites. Goa was a Portuguese colony thru the 1800’s & until 1952. We saw a large Roman Catholic Church and a Museum. I was also able to do some shopping.

Saturday evening we had a service in Pastor Job’s home. There were about 30 people present. Pastor Job and his wife Melunah have a two-year-old son named Oswin. They opened this new church in Goa about one year ago. They also started an orphanage with seven boys, between ages six and 10. They sang special music for us. Again we had guitars and singing. I preached on “Blind Bartimaeus” (Mark 10). Jaison & Dr. Sane shared interpreting duties. There were several Hindu ladies there and a Muslim lady. After the service the Muslim lady named Praveen came forward for prayer. Her husband died of AIDS about six months ago. She was afraid she had it too (not confirmed). I urged her to receive Jesus as her personal Savior and she said she did. We prayed for her and her four-year-old son, named Fazal. Pray for them.
